Welcome to Next Economies Summit 2025
Click and mark your calendars for September 12-14, 2025 in Istanbul
The root cause of the climate, biodiversity, and social crises lies within our current economic system. Last year’s International Prosumer Economy Conference (IPEC2024) showed strong interest for coming together again and working towards “United Next Economies.”
Next Economies is distinct from other conferences due to its focus on actionable systemic solutions and their practical implementation. This unique approach attracts a diverse and influential global audience. Our conference draws in policy makers, impact and philanthrophic investors, companies and social entrepreneurs interested in sustainable and innovative practices. It also engages NGOs, international organizations, academia and professionals from various sectors, including finance, media, tech, and creative industries.
Stay updated with the latest news by following our social media accounts!
We look forward to welcoming you to Istanbul in September 12-14, 2025!
